EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a unique moment in history as two palanquins, each carrying a European gentleman and lady, meet on the streets. The scene is set in 1860, showcasing the luxurious mode of transport that was popular among the elite during this time.
The European gentleman and lady exchange greetings as their bearers - four to each palanquin - stagger on under the weight of their passengers. The intricate details of the palanquins highlight the opulence and sophistication of this form of transportation.
The image provides a glimpse into a bygone era when such elaborate means of travel were reserved for those of high social standing. It offers a fascinating insight into the customs and traditions of European society during this period.
Mary Evans Picture Library has expertly captured this historical moment, allowing viewers to step back in time and experience the grandeur and elegance of 19th-century Europe.
